Sheriff threatens to arrest Apple CEO Tim Cook over FBI court order

A Sheriff has threatened to arrest Apple CEO Tim Cook unless the business leader complies with a government order to unlock an iPhone.

The government order was issued to force Apple to unlock a phone belonging to one of the terrorists in the San Bernardino terror attacks. However, Cook has refused. The CEO has previously stated that he will not comply with order as it is “an unprecedented step which threatens the security of our customers.”

Grady Judd is the Sheriff of Polk County, USA. He is now threatening the CEO with an arrest if he doesn’t stop refusing to collaborate with the authorities.  

“The CEO of Apple needs to know he’s not above the law,” Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said, according to TheNextWeb.com.
